GENERAL ±
Precautions Before Service
00-20
Other precautions:
Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils, particularly
used engine oils.
Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves
where practicable.
Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underpants, with
oil.
Do not put oily rags in pockets, the use of overalls without
pockets will avoid this.
Do not wear heavily soiled clothing and oil-impregnated
foot-wear. Overalls must be cleaned regularly and kept
separately from personal clothing.
Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should
be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face shields;
in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.
Obtain First Aid treatment immediately for open cuts and
wounds.
Wash regularly with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed, especially before meals (skin cleansers and nail
brushes will help). After cleaning, the application of
preparations containing lanolin to replace the natural skin
oils is advised.
Do not use petrol, kerosine, diesel fuel, gas oil, thinners
or solvents for cleaning skin.
Use barrier creams, applying them before each work
period, to help the removal of oil from the skin after work.
If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without
delay.
